Abstrakt: Prabowo Subianto, the newly elected president of Indonesia, faces the challenge of governing the country after securing a strong electoral mandate. His rise to power represents a shift in narrative, as he leverages his charm and aligns with the policies of the outgoing president, Joko Widodo. Prabowo has proposed various economic and welfare initiatives, including biofuel development, hospital construction, agricultural expansion, and job creation.
